Eastbourne
Eastbourne has a population of 90,000 people. It is a delightful seaside town, famous for its beautiful setting between the hills of the South Downs and the sea, and its excellent sunshine record.
The school is located right in the centre of Eastbourne. All the town's facilities are within easy walking distance.
Eastbourne is a quiet, safe place with lots of facilities for students, especially during the summer. There is a large shopping centre, plenty of restaurants, bars and discos, two large sports centres, three museums, an art gallery, three theatres, a multiplex cinema and numerous parks. A major tennis tournament is held every year at the town's Devonshire Park.
Eastbourne's Sovereign Harbour is the largest boat
marina in Europe, with places for over 1100 boats.
The famous Seven Sisters White Cliffs and Beachy Head
are nearby and offer spectacular views over the town and the English Channel. The hilly South Downs are on the west of the town. There are some beautiful, unspoilt towns and villages in the Downs.
